Thanks for your advices, I'll try them as soon as I get my Macbook back. Today they called. They told me my battery had 400 cycles and must be replaced, but I had to pay. I declined (with your advices in my mind). I asked, it its normal that Macb…

For example you can't get adidas shoes from the US in Germany (they've a complete different line-up). If you can get those shoes, they cost like 30$ in the US and 80€ (ca. 110$ !!!) here ... you're asking why nobody is wearing US clothes? Macs ar…
